Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 07/02/2017 09:28 am From the same lot as the Crispus: IMP CAES NERVA TRAIAN AVG, laureate head right She-wolf crouching left (RIC 694) and right (RIC 692), SC below At about AE4 size, these are some of the very few quadrans to feature the emperor's bust. Does anybody know roughly how common or scarce these are? They seem pretty available, but sale prices are a lot higher (~$25) than I would expect. Report this Post to the Staff

Paul Bulgerin Pillar of the Community United States 3098 Posts	Posted 07/02/2017 12:22 pm I like this design a lot and have two nice ones in my collection. So much detail and lettering on such a small coin! I think the left-facing wolf is a big scarcer than the right-facing type. Paul Bulgerin Report this Post to the Staff
